Predicted High here in the Rogue Valley in Southern Oregon tomorrow...
113 on Tuesday and 112 on Wednesday...
wonder how the folks in Phoenix and L.A. will be doing.
They are talking of highs at 110 or over, thru Friday... but then once again, weather people like the rest of news people LOVE to use the power of the shock factor, and delight in the attention they get by the people who's lives revolve around their
every word.
Heck was out working on the truck and a trailer today. The high was 105 degrees. Never really noticed except when they were talking about it on the radio. Guess I'll drop into the pool once or twice to cool down .or go in under a cold shower.
as long as they don't pull brown outs and folks will have to do without A/C. don't think this area is targeted yet by the leftists, and blaming it on 'Climate change"....
You guys east of here in Montana and the Upper Midwest... you should see all of this in a day or two...but probably not this high.. Might take some time off and go over to the coast where it will be a lot cooler...probably low to mid 80s.

Glad I don't have to come over the Cascades this week then, John.
Official high at the airport today was 95F. 97* on our patio thermometer before the sun swung around enough to beam directly under the shade cover and throw things way off.
I've acclimated to the other three seasons here I think. 95* used to be a very tolerable temp when living in SoCal and the deserts of AZ/NV. Now I like a nice 40*-50* sunny day and call that t shirt weather.
I was out watering gardens at 95* this evening and wasn't too fond of the the temp.
The desert is a true treasure for him who seeks refuge from men and the evil of men.
In it is contentment
In it is death and all you seek

The Lookout fire on 126 near Blue River generated a Go Now order last night around 10:30. The south Willamette Valley is full of smoke.
Not a good time for triple digit heat.

temps here. The problem is it started in June. Same here Mike. We’re now into 40 days of over 100 degrees. Most days it’s 105 or 106. Last 4 days in a row have broken all time records at 109 for each day. Supposed to be a cold front come through today with a high of only ………………….. 96 degrees. 🤪

Down here in south Louisiana we getting some 100 degree days sweat sitting the shade with the high dew points & humidity.

I generally say we just have to survive July and August here, and if we can make it to mid-September we are back in bearable temperatures. Our cabin-fever is in the summer, not January/February. If you aren't out on the water, nobody here want's to do jack squat outdoors. The rest of the year is usually pretty decent.
Now with even more aplomb

It was over 100 yesterday here. Today it started out on the same track, but the weather report says afternoon showers followed by cooler weather (80s) for the remainder of the day/evening.

Gonna be in WV some the next few weeks... it will in the 50s overnight on our mountain.
Won't mind it a bit.
If you are not actively engaging EVERY enemy you encounter... you are allowing another to fight for you... and that is cowardice... plain and simple.

It hit 100 just east of us today. Pretty rare for these parts. Mid 90s isn’t too unusual, but we rarely hit 100.
